Magazines build your brand with frequency and depth. They offer more substance and more value than most other vehicles and provide an archive of knowledge about your company’s expertise both inside and outside the organization. Articles created for company publications can be archived and repurposed for other publications, reprint handouts, blogs, and sales support as well.
